Ladies DateJust 2135 Arbor Weight Sounds Lose

I received a ladies DateJust 69173 today and when moving the watch you can feel a bump bump bump like something is lose. Looking at the movement the arbor weight is what is making the bumps. It has a fair amount of play in it and I am not sure this is normal. The watch has been shelved and unwound for a long time so I am now concerned about shaking it until wound completely (how do you ever know).

Also, there seems to be a slight binding of the arbor weight. Again, there is enough play in the arbor weight that it makes it noticeable in the feel when moved in a winding motion.

Is this normal? Can the Arbor Weight be tightened? Any other suggestions other than sending it to repair which I would like to avoid.

Thanks.
